    A lot of system files were deleted. Reinstall 2000?

    Somehow I managed to delete most of the files in my \WINNT folder along with some of the folders AND some files in the subfolders of WINNT. Even some of the files at root were deleted. The 2000 server is the only server in the domain, thus the lone DC. I have yet to restart the server (I am...

    Replacing a 2003 DC with another 2003 DC

    I have a small network with one server -- a 2003 DC. The server is performing the roles of File Server, Domain Controller, DNS server, and Print Server. Nothing fancy. I would like this new server to mirror the old one, ie same name & same IP. Once the new server is up & running, the old...

    Users folder doesn't always get mapped

    I have a 2003 AD domain with a mix of 98 & XP workstations. In the login script I map U: to \\server\users\username. Also in AD Users & Computers I set the home folder to U: \\server\users\username. Usually things work & U: gets mapped when the users login. The 98se workstations, so far...
